About this restaurant

  • Innovative
  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Good for special occasions
Lumbre is a tribute to the abundance of Baja Sur. In the kitchen the main component is the product of its land and seas; the most powerful tool is firewood; and global techniques are the perfect complement to enhance its flavor, providing balance and personality. We work with local fishermen, ranchers, and farmer friends to find the best existing products.
NEAT, our Lounge Bar upstairs has the most exciting and cosmopolitan vibe in town for a great night of drinks and chill.The atmosphere separates and transmits a different vibe to the dining area. Chillout and Live Music on Sundays, signature mixology and a special finger food menu to accompany the moment and a pleasant chat.

    The food here is unbelievable! IWe were recommended here by a fellow hotel guest and were so happy we listened to them. We ordered crudo, blue fin tuna and octopus to start. They were all fantastic but the tuna was my favorite. They shred black truffle on the tuna in front of you!! My husband has the fish and I had the chicken. They were both great! Highly recommend this place. You won’t regret it!

    Lovely ambience & decor. Great service. A little pricey, but must say our dinner was one of the best we've ever had. We skipped appetizer to save room for dinner. Shared the Fire plate for Two. Nice portions of Seabass, Steak and Crudpy Pork Belly with veggie sides. Every bite was perfectly delicious.

    Second time here and by far the best food in Cabo. Obsessed with the blue fin. Cant go around with any of the food. Love the parking lot and going there on Thursday night during the art walk.

    The food was creative, and most things we ordered were delicious. (The crudo was a little bland.) The space is gorgeous, and the service was very nice but a little slow.
